- by gamerz651, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5when i load a thumbnail from an url, the size is bigger and not adjusted to the "square" of the dial. i don't find where to do it, or if it is possible.
[edit...]
(i cant answer to the developper so i wish if i edit my comment he can see it, if not i will post a new comment)
hello
in fact there is already an option fill (stretch) or cover. that was what i looked for
thanks 5 stars
can you add an option that adds the favicon as a thumbnail?Developer response
posted 6 months agoHello,
In the "Edit dial" window on the "Visual" tab you can change the thumbnail position.
In the upcoming release it will be automatically set to "Center (contain)" for all custom images.
Best regards,

- by Firefox user 5926074, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5Migrated from FVD Speed Dial. Only the dissatisfaction points are listed below.
I would be grateful if you could answer.
・ Thumbnail> Create your own Text ........ I can't use Japanese.
-It is annoying that the Edit Dial screen is displayed when you click the blank part of the Group Dial.
-Many sites did not load the image with Edit Dial> Thumbnail from public liblary, so I processed it with Custum thumbnail from file.
-Thumbnail may lose its shape due to a bad setting operation.
Normal for FVD Speed Dial

Thank you for answering.
I was able to make a satisfactory setting.
You can safely migrate from the FVD Speed Dial.Developer response
posted 6 months agoHello,
The "Edit dial" can be disabled in the Options page / Dials tab / "Disable quick edit with left click".
My public library is currently pretty empty. I'm working on a brand new one which should give nice images for much much more domains. I will start working on this next week.
When using custom image, you need to switch the thumbnail position to "Center (cover)" - you can do this in the "Edit dial" window on the "Visual" tab. In the next release, this will be a default position for custom images.
If you find more issues, please write them to me to my support email.
Thank you for your feedback!

- by Bertie, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5Hello, I am also a switch from FVD speed dial to Group Speed Dial.
I really like the features.
A Pro I also find good, however I do not like to spend a monthly amount for it.
Better would be one-time amount, one-time payment for an unlimited term.
I have one more request.
How can a dial be moved in such a way that all dials continue to be
go crazy and not get traded?
I mean insert a dial and move the entire list order of dials down.

Hello, Juraj Mäsiar,
Thank you for activating the Pro version.
Everything is working fine so far and I am very satisfied.
I'm looking forward to seeing it once I've looked at everything and I've tried it all.
Many thanks for your work on the addon.Developer response
posted 6 months agoHello,
Regarding moving the dial - if you drop the dial on the "gear icon" you will be able to choose "Insert above/right/left/below" which will move in a row and place the dial there. But it will also resize group (add row/column) if there is not enough space.
I will be adding new "Dynamic mode" soon that will make things work similarly to other popular addons so there it will work as you expect. I will try to add it next week.
Regarding Pro version, please write me to my support email what exactly do you have in mind and I'm sure we can think of something.
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar - by KBC, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5GSD could not import any of the dials from FVD speed dial. I watched the youtube video of how to import the dials several times and tried several times. All that is imported is the Group headings and no dial headings/url's or anything. Some of my groups have more than 40 dials and I had adjusted the group columns & width to be 6 X 12 dials. Still failed to import a single dial. Waited for an hour for the import to take place - Failed to import. (Though "Import successful" was shown in the options tab and "Save" done.) I tried both the methods described in the you tube tutorial (including unzipping the Speedial.sd file). So help me if anybody knows a workaround.
Reviewed on 28/Nov/2021: I tried again after reinstalling GSD. Did the import of FVD speed dials as described in the developer's You tube video. Pressed "Saved". Waited for a minute. Then shut down Firefox. Restarted Firefox and, lo behold, all my dials in FVD Speed Dial had been correctly imported to GSD, all correctly arranged in the respective groups. All that remained was to refresh the thumbnails in the various ways available in GSD. (This can take some time if you have 300 dials or so, like me).
Finally, changed the "extensions.blocklist.enabled” pref value to true in firefox's "about:config:".
Changing my rating to 5 stars for this extension. I really appreciate the hard work done by the developer. He updated his extension as soon as he came to know of the problem. Wow!Developer response
posted 6 months agoHello,
I've released new version 16.9 just yesterday that fixes the problems with the import.
It should work now.
Feel free to contact me to my support email if it somehow doesn't work. I've already helped some other users with the similar issue.

Viel Arbeit vom Entwickler investiert, etliche Konfigurationsmöglichkeiten die nach etwas eigener Arbeit beste Anpassung an eigene Bedürfnisse erlauben.
Daher aber auch nichts für Leute die selber nicht wissen was sie wollen
und wie man sich die eigenen Wünsche zusammen konfiguriert - wie man das bei einigen Bewertungen lesen kann...
Danke an Juraj - gute Arbeit! :-) - by pa_well, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5Wymuszona przesiadka z FVD Speed Dial. Na razie nie żałuję i chyba zostanie ze mną na dłużej.

- by Derpaldinho, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5Kinda glad FVD Speed Dial got banned from Firefox as it allowed me to discover this addon which I believe is faster and most customizable

posted 6 months agoThank you!
Having feedback like this the reason I go to work every day and work on this addon :). I hope it will make your life easier - and if not, please let me know how I can improve it.
I'm gonna make this the best speed dial in the world :).
Best regards,
Juraj Mäsiar - by ArioSuren, 6 months agoRated 5 out of 5The only alternative to the now blocked FVD Speed Dials. Much more user friendly, customizable and faster than that too!
